2017 Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Kabinett

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2017 Graacher Himmelreich Kabinett offers a clear, bright, fresh and flinty bouquet with nice reduction. On the palate, the wine is light, lush, piquant, fresh and salty, with grip, tension and spring-like clarity and freshness. A gorgeous, highly stimulating Kabinett. Tasted in March 2019. - Stephan Reinhardt, Jun. 2019

Mosel Fine Wines: This 2017er Graacher Himmelreich Kabinett is still quite marked by residual scents from its spontaneous fermentation. It then gradually reveals its nose made of herbs, green apple, white peach and mint. The wine proves very light and delicate on the transparent yet quite lean palate. The medium long and off-dry finish is straight, zesty and crisp. This Kabinett is as light as water and there is just a touch of ripeness coming through in the after-taste which gives the wine a slightly bigger side. There is ample upside if it manages to harness the power at maturity. 2024-2032+. - Okt. 2018

Vinous: Pineapple and grapefruit on the nose – while partly shrouded by yeastiness and fermentative residues – anticipate the brightness and tang with which this wine buoyantly and invigoratingly hits the polished palate. Inner-mouth lily-of-the-valley perfume and a hint of black currant (not unusual for this site) add appeal en route to a vibrant, lusciously lingering, stone-lined finish. What a classic Prüm Kabinett! - David Schildknecht, Jan. 2020
